In the only other two matches to survive the wet weather, there were victories on Duckworth-Lewis method for both title-chasing Ynysygerwn and Pontarddulais.

Ynys inserted Newport at Aberdulais, and dismissed the Spytty Park club for 144 off their scheduled 33 overs.

Marc Collins (26) and Michael Clayden (21) opened up with a stand of 40, but wickets fell at regular intervals to Geraint Bowden (3-22) while captain Richard Grant and Nicholas Maggs both captured 2-34.

Mumbles were dismissed for 137 in the final over of 37 against Pontarddulais at Marespool with Aneurin Donald (71) the leading light.

The ex-Gorseinon batsman posted 38 for the fifth wicket with Aneurin Norman (20) with Lukas Carey claiming 3-50. A rain intervention resulted in Bont requiring 157 off 37 overs – and it proved within their capabilities.

Dion Holden, who recently switched from Mumbles to Bont, led the way with an important 46 and a stand of 68 for the third wicket with Arwel Thomas (43) swaying the issue on 158-7.

Sully's clash with Cardiff at The Diamond Ground was cancelled in mid-afternoon. However, the first game of the season to be called off was Swansea against Bridgend Town which perished at lunchtime
